experts on all those things and more not really want to i'm happily married husband the father of two fantastic children i live on a main street in a small new england town with actual white picket fences i made this movie for you me and everyone we know in the hope that we can create a world where human need comes before corporate greed so why does it feel almost un-american to say that think about it this way just go with me for a second here you know that scene from the oliver stone film wall street when gordon gekko played by michael douglas in a role that would win him an oscar appears at a shareholders meeting of a company or paper to defend his actions and his grotesque worldview and delivers the now famous speech where he says. for lack of a better word is good. right greek works. greek. can. see at the least. and. i. will not only say tells us that

other malfunction of this. audience is flipped out they cheered everybody in the eighties wanted to be gordon gekko but the thing is this all over stone road is a piece of satire but nobody got it just the opposite all over stone was trying to send up the excesses of the reagan era michael douglas his portrayal helped inspire a whole generation of slicked back hair doos in double breasted seats adopting the greed is good ethos and pursuing the american dream as it had come to be defined now delivers a pretty well for a very few poverty and misery down on many and serving as a homicidal force for others because people do in fact die for lack of access to health care in the richest country in the world that's the us of a human consumption is in fact accelerating the instruction of our plant. people do in fact

die in wars waged based on lies that profit precious view over five million children globally each year do not reach their fifth birthday because they die of starvation all of this is not because the system that puts man on the moon or can squeeze an entire library onto a computer chip the size of a thumbnail has failed to find a way to solve these problems rather our system without apology places corporate greed. and greed take back the popular phrase is not good now the question many within the occupy movement are trying to solve is this one what would world look like that had a culture and an economic system the places you need above corporate greed and how do we bring that world into being who cares what it is called call it socialism call it real democracy now call it chunky monkey cherry garcia the world needs to change radically needs to change dramatically and it needs to change fast this

documentary is an invitation for you to participate in that positive change frankly because we need you yes you. can so bad. it's a very well to buy but makes it a problem if you just saw all the money in one place. so i got to do is go the money is there yet for people there will. be four million yet six want to hear. thirty percent of american families one percent of the wealthy. ninety

five percent so now that we've identified the problem broadly speaking what do you think the solution is raise your hand if you think the way our representative democracy currently functions bought and sold as it is by wall street and super pacs offers a bright ray of hope forward anyone to the very same problem anyone politicians know if they spout spend their competitor they go when they win the election ninety four percent of the time. so. they have no fear of the american people they fear the people who are going to fund their campaign right so that means that you me and just about everyone we know has very little say over who represents us and little to no influence over them once they get into all this for the process is rigged to throw an enormous amount of money behind candidates in the two major parties and consequently choosing the lesser of two evils is something americans have done with a fatalistic shrug of the shoulders for far too long to say the u.s. government currently functions of foreign by the people would be a funny joke if the joke were not on you mean almost everyone we know imagine

a world in which your single voice carried as much weight as the c.e.o. of goldman sachs and you're starting to imagine the world that the occupy movement is trying to bring into being always going to greet us not about unanimity we will be like a duke ellington jazz orchestra. everybody's got their own voice and even duke is not the conductor he just didn't put the money but it doesn't know it yet it. just encourages yes that's democracy in action at the deepest level experiencing the horizontal community and culture and organization. so radicalizing for people and continues to be so radical because it draws such a stark contrast up against what they're fighting and actually in their minds clarifies what they're up against more and then somebody. more than it would be clarified if somebody got up and tried. to clarify it for thanks to occupy wall

street there is a lot of new ways of organizing which is not just calling people to participate in something you came up with but giving people the opportunity to create for themselves and to be part of a original brainstorming about what to do so that they feel empowered in a smooth it's also i think. finally put the kybosh on let's organize a rally on a saturday in washington d.c. when everything is closed and people come from around the country and spend a lot of money to walk around in a circle and come home. so . people. being killed by a certain degree much. no longer

represent the people people the .

thank you. was that it was it was or was it he was a kid what would you say you want me to forget it was. five thirty in the morning was a comedy on most mornings early in the occupy wall street movement there would only be about fifty maybe two hundred or so occupying the space but at five thirty in the morning on the morning of october fourteenth two thousand and eleven several thousand people were gathered there wide awake. because mayor michael bloomberg had

declared that his own personal army his words the n.y.p.d. constituting the seventh largest army in the world what is it occupy wall street and these thousands were there not just in solidarity they were there on with an idea some cardboard signs and an urgency to protect it and many of them were prepared to go to jail trying to fill the space i had already gone to jail once since all of this started as an organizer with the october two thousand and eleven coalition i had been in washington d.c. in the early days of the movement and you can see me here after suggesting repeatedly inside the hart senate office building that we find other uses for the money we lavish on our homicidal bull geo political china shop and the foreign policy i was given to do not pass go go directly to jail card and in a few days i would be arrested again this time for protesting corporate personhood on the steps of the supreme court. and it would mean all around the

world because we love. working people and. that jane doing it is great that we have the fact that it. occupy d.c. the occupy wall street occupy supreme court not everywhere in my willingness to go to jail for the movement so i was hardly unique and with the thousands that were in zuccotti on the morning of october fourteenth it seemed that you're about to eclipse the previous one day record total of seven hundred protesters arrested on the brooklyn bridge what was it that brought all of those people to use a comedy that it may not be in. evolution in the traditional sense but this is a revolution of the. revolution and it's not least likely to take a dim pepper spray. everything looks like a clean the utility like. in the first six months of about seven thousand people have been arrested in occupy

related protests or that while the funds. and why in the predawn hours on that friday in october were so many prepared to go to jail. i i i i. i. i'm i'm where we are supposed to get cleaned out of the park we swept the share park and then we took brooms and we took them to the to wall street the clean up wall street i think most of the problems but the filth was in the offices so we can get to it but we did a little victory lap and the police brutalized the south i know they do that they have done that try to twenty five years in this country three years non violent confrontations with the police whether they be in asserting one's first amendment rights to assemble uncommented spontaneous marches in the streets can be incredibly empowering movement building experience and antidote to the years of disempowering

and free speech zones when it comes to be there. and yet civil resistance is but one part one tactic of the movement if you only saw the early stages of the occupy movement through the lens of the mainstream media you might think it was soley about clashes with the police. please. more news today violence has once again fled upline. these are the images the world has been seeing from the streets of canada.

and. elaine. in illinois hello. and it. was. live. live and. i thought. and i can't or you don't want to set me up. like this now i guess. there are inherent in our civilians to get excited when. i was young i saw those. people that had not been seen anything strength there's no honor in. my public

everybody has served in iraq afghanistan like to look him up. in afghanistan my mother didn't get an hour back. i don't come home i'm a new york city my opinion your city and. there's no reason there's no bridges no owner and i don't see millions. was. this is. a i can't sleep. leisurely ok let's just be honest here for a moment for some people this is an justifiably so a battle about a police state since one nine hundred eighty the number of people in prison per capita in the united states has more than tripled we now in prison

a greater percentage of our population than any other country in the world in fact the united states is only five percent of the world's population has twenty five percent of the world's prison population in the u.s. one in every one hundred six white males aged eighteen or over is incarcerated for hispanic males that number is one in thirty six and one in fifteen black males over eighteen is currently in jail. between one thousand nine hundred seven and two thousand and seven state spending on incarceration related expenses increased one hundred twenty seven percent while spending on higher education during that same period rose a mere twenty percent is it that much more profitable to jail or population than it is to educate and. i think that's a great read and the nand their head lock arms now you know why take me to tell you that i continue to do this i rather go to jail you know watch you continue to pull my brother my sister and my mom's going about he also looks like me an arrest i

think it should be a scary thing not just for those oh you know people of color minority but out of us another we have to live in a society like that. ok so depending on your geographic location your everyday reality may reflect the police state we live in two larger or smaller degrees but at least you have your health right at least you have your home. already made every time there are various issues like that which are so pfizer we question our mother. of every two thousand and eleven am profiting no matter what. action taking place right. in front of my camera right. thank you you're welcome pal sometimes it demanding change on a large scale has to start with small groups of individuals saying enough is enough like this group of individuals in western massachusetts who gather in an attempt to stop the bank of america from executing yet another foreclosure. thanks it's.

a lack of government regulations gave banks enough rope to operate like cowboys in the wild west and they responded by lassoing homeowners with these predatory lending practices when the housing bubble burst bank of america got bailed out and those with underwater mortgages were sold out so that c.e.o.'s like brian moynihan could collect the year end bonus of over nine million dollars a week lou with that they have enough money to pay for a reasonable war gauge at today's values so this is something that all of can stand behind we believe that when folks have you know a hall and that they should be able to stay in that home and it's not like they're not willing to pay this is the weirdest movement i've ever worked in this way and the foreclosure movement because we are begging people to take money and they won't take it of course occupy hardly invented foreclosure defenses people like grace and i foreclosure organizations have been toiling away at this for years but when

occupy wall street went to east new york in december to march occupy are more and more people around the country started to realize that there was another way to thank god. was. back. there thanking god. and sometimes demanding change in a large scale starts because even smaller groups dr margaret flowers is among the nation's leading advocates for true health care reform health care reform that would eliminate the for profit insurance companies and provide medicare for all individuals in the united states a former pediatrician and congressional fellow dr flowers worked within the system for years after their farmhouse i was traveling around the country and people kept saying how are we going to get single payer i was speaking around various states and and i and slowly it kind of came together like oh well unless you know as a as a movement even though we're in the majority of the population once

a single payer system we're not going to be strong enough as a single issue. kind of movement to have that kind of political power and health care is really part of a broader social economic justice movement anyway and so we really need to come together bring our strengths together combine our strengths to have the power and so i know this in my talks i was starting to shift more into you know calling for a broader movement as a core organizer of the october two thousand and eleven coalition that occupied freedom plaza in washington d.c. dr flowers thought fit to attend as an uninvited guest a wall street comes to washington health care conference i crashed the party with her i know it wouldn't let my big camera and so i had to shoot the video this impromptu meeting with the real death panels on myself was to get how did how we did it and that's how good i did i acceptable. practice because they can provide was my was out i was. fine

i think you're going to have a snow cave you are right. what is. it. sally. street. put on the street and join protesters picketing outside where a dare risk wrote shared her story of why health care was literally a life and death issue i came here because. for my father martin i was full suicide shocked so it had every state. but because what part did have enough money to pay for health care to take care of it and didn't want to pass because my sister and myself were fifty four years old this is the most considerate

suicide i've heard of if he had to put sticky notes on everything he had borrowed from anybody saying you know we turned this post this person and cetera et cetera everything that could have possibly been done to get him home i work on my porch on her own said please tell me where my car my daughter's home i have to find. that it was stuff he says i'm sure you understand this is something i have a whole you know with out but simply not i'm sure that's why i'm here at this forum and i've heard people like every person that die for lack of access to health care somethings father or son or daughter thank you take a stand up not only for my father but for all those like. you have. it is a. thing i. think a i. think

i thought ok you think you know my mortgage is underwater and my health care costs are going through this here is america i'll just pull myself up by the bootstraps and get to work nose to the grindstone will solve all ills but be careful out there if you haven't noticed there is a war on workers well underway between one nine hundred eighty and two thousand and eight the average income of the bottom ninety percent remained effectively unchanged at thirty one thousand dollars per year in that same time span the average income of the top one percent went four hundred thousand dollars to over one point one million dollars per year so much for trickle down economics in one thousand nine hundred a c.e.o. made forty two times that of an average employee by two thousand and ten to see those were earning three hundred forty three times workers median wage and while

the rich got richer they were paying less and less taxes in one nine hundred forty five millionaires get a tax rate of sixty six percent in two thousand and ten millionaires effective tax rate was thirty two percent or more gratian things look even better bank of america holds over two point two trillion in assets and pays less in taxes than the average american household in two thousand and ten g.b. reported five point two billion dollars in profit and was awarded a tax refund three point two billion dollars citi group has not paid taxes in the last four years and yet in the wake of the financial crisis they are deemed too big to fail and received four hundred seventy six billion dollars in taxpayer bailout money and goldman sachs has spent twenty two million dollars in campaign contributions and twenty one million dollars in lobbying at. in the past decade and in two thousand and eight paid taxes at a rate. for
